Geoff Freeman, President and CEO of the U.S. Travel Association, issued a statement following the suspension of TSA PreCheck and Global Entry, outlining the organisation’s position on the development.
“The suspension of TSA PreCheck and Global Entry is extremely disappointing. We are disgusted that over the last 90 days, Democrats and Republicans have used air traffic controllers, TSA, CBP and the entire travel experience as a means to achieve political ends. “
“Travelers should be prioritized, not leveraged. Travel is the gateway to the American economy and Americans should not have their mobility, security or travel experience diminished because elected leaders fail to resolve their differences. “
“Travel is vital to the American people and it is time for policymakers to put the American people first.”
